wd0i is my RAID partition: .. $ dd if=/dev/wd0i skip=8244 bs=1 count=4 | hexdump -C 4+0 records in 4+0 records out 4 bytes transferred in 0.000 secs (11799 bytes/sec) 00000000 43 00 00 00 |C...| 00000004 .. $ what does 0x43 means? regards, c. > > FWIW, > /marco > > On Fri, Dec 12, 2008 at 01:33:14PM +0100, Michael wrote: > > Todd T.
